	It will run without the ground.  Providing an

	explicit ground, at these power levels, would
	be preferred.  Else, the table will 'float up'
	(electrically), may provide a shock hazard.
	(read the 'cadillac' thread.  Situation is exactly
	parallel, save that the table is not on rubber
	tires.)

	What is the floor like?
	Concrete?  Wood?

	If its a 'shop' must be lots of grounded metal around.

	???

	If electronics (computers, controllers), route
	away from them.
